Canada is one of the top five countries in the world in terms of highest pharmaceutical spend per capita. It is also among the top five countries in the world when it comes to the consumption of antidepressants. How did we as a country become so dependent on medicine to go about our daily chores is a question asked by many?
For centuries, people around the world have used medicinal plants for healing, likely since the earliest days of humanity. Indigenous peoples in Canada, in particular, have relied on plants and other natural materials as medicine for generations, using plant-based remedies more frequently than animal-based ones. In total, Indigenous peoples have identified over 400 types of plants, as well as lichens, fungi, and algae, that have medicinal uses.
Our belief in the power of functional or medicinal mushrooms comes from information that has been found in history texts across various parts of the world. In Asia, monks have mentioned drinking tea made with Reishi and Lion’s Mane to help them relax and focus. The nobility in the past has been known to add functional mushrooms to their diets to boost their immunity, better skin and vitality. Sportspersons have been using the natural Cordyceps extracts as a part of their diet to enhance endurance naturally. Turkey Tail has been a part of medicine used to cure cancer in various parts of Asia. The world of functional mushrooms existed much before Big Pharma took over.
Organic Mushrooms was born out of the need to provide natural and filler-free supplements as daily supplements to enhance your health and well-being. The company makes supplements from the natural extracts of functional mushrooms grown in Canada. The family-owned company offers nutritional supplements made with 100% natural extracts of revered functional mushrooms derived using a patented double hot water extraction process.

The company offers the goodness of popular functional mushrooms such as Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps, Reishi, Chaga, Shiitake, Maitake, and Turkey Tail in the form of 100% natural extract powder, capsules, supplement gummies and tinctures. The company has also created speciality blends with the multi-beneficial Ashwgandha and has several wellness bundles aimed at different wellness goals such as better heart, better sleep, weight management, digestion aid, better skin, enhanced fitness and relief from stress and depression among others.
Mr. Jeremy Downs, Founder of Organic Mushrooms, says that, “The world of functional mushrooms has great possibilities that the world of medicines hasn’t even explored yet. We endeavour to offer the goodness of functional mushrooms to Canadians in the form of ready-to-consume health supplements which can elevate their mind and body.”
Thousands of Canadians have benefitted from Organic Mushrooms supplements and are vouching for the use of natural health supplements as an alternative to the medicine. Canadians from all parts of Canada have incorporated Organic Mushrooms supplements into their daily diet and are not only satisfied but happy with the results.
The company opened its first store to the public at Parksville, Vancouver Island earlier this month and has been selling the supplements to everyone through its website organicmushrooms.ca for over a year. The family-funded startup intends to reach out to all Canadians over the next few years through its website and physical stores.
